fearing to enable a more right wing alternative is understandable but paralyzing.

I don't know about the rest of those people, but I know there are people trying to convince Brian Schweitzer to challenge Baucus... I support that and the ex-governor is very popular in Montana. I would hope there would be strong challengers to those others, but I wouldn't want to throw the seat away to a more conservative, kneejerk, asshat, freak, teahadist. So we have that too, and that's a problem. Begich disappointed me great though, didn't actually expect that from him.

Happy 4/20 Jolly, I think it's your national holiday.

God did not write the Constitution. Slavery would not have been a part of the document.

Who cares what Republican lite Obama does? He's done and had the Republicans fielded a better candidate, he would have been punished for his failure of leadership these last 4 years. People are wise to this Judas. Didn't he promise to protect SS? Instead he wanted to make a name for himself taking on the Gun lobby instead of fulfilling his earlier promises. I am not ready to finance and build the Obama statue.Who the hell does he think he is, taking on the Second Amendment.....God?

The bigger problem is Harry Reid not being willing to force a true filibuster. The public wants Senatorial action. Instead we have a fake filibuster with a 60 vote requirement for anything important. That is simply insane. Reid is an ineffective leader. Reid is in no way articulate. If you watch Reid's interviews you realize that if you could bottle the energy he produces, you would become a billionaire selling sleeping pills

Cloture failed by one vote.

Cloture failed by one vote. (they would have wheeled Laughtenberg in.) Any ONE of these could have moved the bill foward. edited to add "I can't count" even with Laughtenberg plus Reid they needed all four. But Reid had the Republicans he needed.
